2016 Badminton Asia Championships (Thurs, 28 April)

Mastumoto/Takahashi should have no problem facing the CHN pair... long rally should be more beneficial to the fitter JPN pair.
 
So now INA camp can only rely on their WD (+1 MD) to make up their losses early this day. Well, that's unusual...

On paper, Yes.
However, Chen/Jia have been growing up tremendously recently, beating out much more established pair like Juhl/Pedersen, also Chang/Lee and Fukuman/Yonao. So I wouldn't be so sure Matsutomo/Takahashi will have easy win.
 
Why Zheng Siwei is not here? Is there a rule that state each country can only have max 4 players/pairs in each events?

We just witnessed long rally and the CHN pair in the end hit the shuttle out.
 
I think Bae Yeon Ju will retire soon. Maybe right after the Olympics. She simply cannot keep up with the new generation.

Nozomi slaughtering her now
 
So proud of Matsumoto/ Takahashi ! They had made such tremendous progress since last year, changed their style completely. They have a real chance at olympic gold now :3

+ they are so damn cute ;p
 
And the Wolrd n°1 Mastumoto/ Takahashi safely through QF in two straight game 22-20 21-18

They're current best WD now and definitely a major stumbling block for Chinese pairs in Rio 2016.
